Any device driver sample for SCO ?!

Hi
I'm looking for a simple and nice sample for writing a device driver in SCO OpenServer 5.0.7. I'm asked to write a device driver for some usb printer. I have already the linux version of the driver but it won't get compiled. I have some basic knowledge of device drivers phenomena such as kernel space , user space , devices , kernel linking , Driver.c and Driver.o , etc.

Please help Smilie

Guys
There's a sample for a parallel port device driver written by Anthony Lawrence , but I can't compile it under my SCO. My SCO is a demo version installed on a VMware virtual machine. There is some 'u' variable i can't understad what it is.

You can find it here.

ULPT(4) 						   BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual 						   ULPT(4)

NAME

     ulpt -- USB printer support

SYNOPSIS

     To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following line in your kernel configuration file:

	   device ulpt

     Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5):

	   ulpt_load="YES"

DESCRIPTION

     The ulpt driver provides support for USB printers that follow the printer bi- or uni-directional protocol.  The bits in the minor number
     select various features of the driver.

	   Minor Bit	Function
	   64		Do not initialize (reset) the device on the port.

     Some printers cannot handle the reset on open; in case of problems try the unlpt device.

HARDWARE

     The ulpt driver provides support for USB printers and parallel printer conversion cables, including the following:

     o	 ATen parallel printer adapter
     o	 Belkin F5U002 parallel printer adapter
     o	 Canon BJ F850, S600
     o	 Canon LBP-1310, 350
     o	 Entrega USB-to-parallel printer adapter
     o	 Hewlett-Packard HP Deskjet 3420 (P/N: C8947A #ABJ)
     o	 Oki Data MICROLINE ML660PS
     o	 Seiko Epson PM-900C, 880C, 820C, 730C

FILES
